Council mulls trash problems

SHARPSBURG - Members of the Sharpsburg Town Council said at a meeting Monday evening that there is a developing trash problem on the Town Pond property off South Church Street.

Mayor Hal Spielman and Vice Mayor Ralph Hammond said there have been increasing reports of trash being dropped off at the site.

"Don't think it's all kids," Hammond said.

Spielman said it is believed that some of the trash may be coming from residents in the nearby Confederate Hills housing development. He said the matter will be investigated by Resident Deputy Kenneth Cain.
